When I start to see white spots, and feel really dizzy, that's when I go cool off. :lol:

So I got a call from Gerson today and he's going to make the rear corner by hand so I don't have to wait 90 days for him to complete the dies :dance: He's also sending the outer rocker for under the back door and all the stuff to mount the fuel tank. I've been having issues getting the Auto Craft guy to return my calls and to give me a price :( Gerson get's busy also but he's really turned out to be a cool guy to work with :thumbs:
